Tohoshinki- Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou?


As promised I'm here with Tohoshinki's latest, "Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou?" or why did I end up falling for you? (another translation being why did I fall in love with you? etc). This single hit one on the oricon, sending Tohoshinki into the record books (evidence). I'm happy to hear this, as this is one amazing amazing single. The A-side leaked very early, but the actual single was released on the 16/07/08.

Tohoshinki- Doushite etc CD+DVD cover
Tracklisting: (combining the versions together)1: Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou?2: Box in the Ship (aka boxing the sheep)3: Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou? (accapella)4: Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou? (less vocal)5: Box in the Ship (less vocal)
Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou? is an amazing track. It's a beautiful ballad with a steady RnB beat. It opens with a pretty ethereal little part before introducing the vocal and the main beat. All members sing with so much emotion, enough to move (even) me to tears (at first, I have become immune now :P ). The song is incredibly sad, about two childhood friends. In a typical manga situation the guy hasn't been able to confess, and now the woman is getting married. The lyrics are absolutly stunning. This song is just perfect, coming together so well. Everything just sounds so beautiful and sad.
Two versions of the PV were made for this- a drama version which did not feat Tohoshinki and another version which included scenes of Tohoshinki. The drama version is excuted well, with scenes fitting the lyrics and pretty decent acting. The Tohoshinki version slides in scenes of each band member, and then a group shot. Their faces can be a ltitle overacted, but otherwise they look very pretty in white.
Box in the Ship (aka boxing the sheep) takes a 360 from Doushite etc and is a fun, upbeat summery tune. It's complete with Island like instrumentals and happy vocals. I love the adlibbing little thing they do- the "ahoy" thingies. It's very typical little pop tune, but I'm a sucker for their vocals and the "boxing the sheep" is pretty amusing (if slighlty strange... they should really tell them how to say these things! Pronounce your engrish properly!). The instrumental break is a little dark sounding for the song but still adds a little bit of variation. The bit just before the ending, where they overlay their vocals, is very nice.
Lastly there is an Accapella version of Doushite etc on the CD only version. Accapella pretty much annoys me, but this one is quite pretty. Apart from the overly pronounced "ohs" the vocals are still beautiful and emotional. They keep good rythmn and the dynamics are good. The accapella version certainly captures the emotion of the song. To be honest I love the song, so another version is quite appreciated.
I'll also note that I like both the instrumentals for Doushite etc and Boxing the Sheep. It does bring to light how repetetive both isntrumentals are, and how Tohoshinki drive the song forward by themselves for the most part.
The single balances a heart-breaking and beautiful ballad, with an upbeat and fun little summer number. This contrast works rather well, if it was too ballads or "sad tracks" it would be down right depressing right? Tohoshinki showed a very mature side of them with their last single, beautiful you and they continue to improve and show this mature side with Doushite etc. It's a beautiful, and memorable track filled with alot of emotion. Box in the Ship is cute without being annoyingly so, and their engrish is lol worthy. It's nice to listen to and very catchy. Overall this single is a must listen. It's amazing. Tohoshinki are clearly a talented and mature boyband. (atleast now...)
Overall: 8/5 (AWESOMENESS- highly reccomended)
On a last note I don't really like the covers. Both are very plain and overly white. Beautiful you covers were much sexier. I suppose they were aiming for something ethereal. I also like how on the CD+DVD they are all looking in different directions, and only Hero is looking up.

FALL IN LOVE AGAIN on July 16th

DBSK (Dong Bang Shin Ki) is one of Korea's most popular boy band under SM Entertainment. Debuted in December 26, 2003, their first single HUG captured the many hearts of Korean girls and soon, formed the Korean fanclub, Cassiopeia. ]Their official debut was held as a Christmas special where they performed the song Oh Holy Night with BoA and their debut song HUG live. In the same year, two months after their first album they have already released their second album which was a Christmas album dedicated for their fans. Both their first and second album soared through the Korean charts. SM Entertainment saw DBSK's potential to be marketed overseas, therefore, several versions of HUG and TRI-ANGLE (one of the songs from their album TRI-ANGLE) were made. A Chinese, International (English) and Japanese version were made for HUG while TRI-ANGLE had all versions except for an English version. Nonetheless, DBSK were fairly successful overseas. SM Entertainment began a push to make DBSK debut in Japan language barrier aside. In 2005, DBSK was introduced in the Japanese market with their single Stay with Me Tonight. In the summer of the same year, DBSK gained popularity in Japan that they continued releasing singles in the Japanese market. Later, they were to be marketed throughout Asia, these countries include Malaysia, Thailand and China.DBSK can not only sing and dance, but they also learned how to speak Japanese fluently, some Mandarin and some English in addition to their first language, Korean.This year, following Koda Kumi's success, Rhythm Zone came up with the plan to release five more singles in February and March for DBSK. Each single will contain a member's solo. All five solos are included in the Mash-Up song Trick, the intro to their T album, and the main song on the T.R.I.C.K. singles. Also, DBSK will release their 22nd single Beautiful You in April and in May, it has been confirmed that DBSK will perform in Hollywood Bowl on May 17th as part of the Korean Music Festival along with fellow SM Entertainment Artists BoA and Super Junior. TVXQ releases their latest single Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou on July 16th 2008
